Newcastle United Signing Fabio Zamblera

Newcastle, as expected, are bringing 17 year-old Italian, Fabio Zamblera, to the club before the transfer window closes tonight.

Fabio Zamblera – outstanding Italian talent

As we reported yesterday, Zamblera is at Italian club Atalanta, and Newcastle were completing the negotiations with his club today.

Fabio currently plays for the Italian Under-18 side and at 6’3â€ tall is a powerful player, who can score goals. It turns out that Newcastle’s new technical director Jeff Vetere has lined up the move for the very highly-rated striker. Fabio has agreed personal terms and a four-and-a-half year deal, and has passed a medical at St James’ Park. 😀

Certainly we are bringing in some great young players to the club as witnessed last night when the Reserves put in an excellent performance to easily beat North Shields 3-0, and we have all 3 new youngsters, Tozer, Boeteng and Kadar playing the full 90 minutes. In that game, 18 year-old local boy Mark Doninger scored 2 great goals, the second one not unlike Flamini’s goal on Tuesday night at the Emirates (sorry to mention that again).

It’s just a pity we haven’t brought in some senior players during the window, but these youngsters are going to stand us in good stead for the future.

Comments are always welcome – just keep the language decent for the kids.

this is off the subject but have you read this,, how cringe worth is anal Oliver..

I have just found this on the Arsenal website from Alan Oliver.

“”I’m absolutely in love with Arsenal. When we came down to the Emirates, the whole set-up is fantastic, the press room, the way we are treated, everything. The stadium is magnificent and there were 60,000 there even though everyone knew Arsenal wouldn’t have the first team out. I went back on the Tube at Finsbury Park and I saw all the young kids with their Arsenal tops on and I just felt that Newcastle United are a million years away from Arsenal. Ever since that night I’ve been a massive Arsenal fan and Newcastle fans seem to think the same.”

This is a fine example of his journalistic failings and arse licking of the highest order.

The Magpies have struck a deal with Serie A side Atalanta for young forward Fabio Zamblera, who agreed personal terms, passed a medical and he could even be looking to break into the United side in the coming months if KK wants to give chances to him and other few promising young guns!

Seriously, he’s a big lad, as are Tozer, Kadar and Baheng. I like the fact we’re signing big players, thats the way forward. Tune up their technical ability and hopefully they’ll turn out good. Or they’ll fetch a nice profit once we sell them!

Good piece of business by Chris Mort and co. These sort of signings excite me. Imagine if we could have a World Class Youth Reserves Team. Where hot prospects from around the world would be playing brilliantly for our reserves trying to break into our first team.

toon1978 – All of the youngsters WON’t get into our first team, the ones who don’t get sold for a profit! Arsenal have done it plenty of times, thats the whole point of the strategy, either first teamers or profit makers!!!!

kash2 how many of the man utd front line reach 6ft? or their entire team for that matter… dont they play the kind of football we love and were once famous for…you’ve been brainwashed by boring allardyce.

down with alan oliver, the fact he’s the representative for us on skynews and skysports makes us look like idiots!!

health update

I was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in February 2017 and completed four months of chemotherapy in late July and will continue to have hormone treatment.

The cancer spread in the bones, but after having a number of CATscans last Friday the cancer has been stabilized and as of April 24th, 2018 it has not spread further.

There is no cure for Stage 4 cancer so I will continue to have CATscans and bone scans about every four months to check on the cancer.

It is as it is - I will do my best under the circumstances - it's another challenge.

Kacper Tylenda Website Designer

One of our avid readers Kacper Tylenda from Poland was the person who came in during April, 2017 and redesigned this web-site from top to bottom.

We think he did a fantastic job to modernize the site with the roll-out on Thursday May 18th surprisingly smooth.

I am so appreciative of his help.

Kacper is starting his own business in web-design so if you want a website built or know of people who want to redo their sites in any way – here’s his portfolio.

It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city. It’s a small boy clambering up stadium steps for the very first time, gripping his father’s hand, gawping at that hallowed stretch of turf beneath him and, without being able to do a thing about it, falling in love.
